Gordon Robichaux is pleased to announce Nobody’s World, an exhibition of paintings, assemblages, and photography created by Siobhan Liddell over the past twenty years. In conjunction, Liddell has curated a group installation of artwork by sixteen artists presented in the smaller room of the gallery.

Conceived of as an annex to the artist’s imagination, the group of works by Etel Adnan, Leilah Babirye, Beverly Buchanan, Leidy Churchman, Marley Freeman, Magdalena Suarez Frimkess, Robert Gober, Gordon Hall, Judy Linn, Mary Manning, Donald Moffett, Monique Mouton, Signe Olson, Gertrud Parker, Paul Mpagi Sepuya, and Sue Tompkins “expand [her] process and community,” creating “a shared space; a give-and-take.”

Through simple gestures, Liddell transforms humble materials—papier-mâché, string, ceramic, wire, plastic cutlery, sticks, and a shopping bag—into tender, delicate constructions. Each work is a site of perception, both a fragment of a larger world and whole and complete in itself. Invested in “the delight and mystery of materiality” the work evokes the body, as both a home for spiritual and emotional consciousness and a reflection of our own vulnerability and mortality. References to nature—leaves, the moon, a feather, branches, bones, a shell—reflect the cycles of life and death. Moving freely between the material and immaterial, Liddell summons the viewer into a poetic cosmology of intuition, emotion, and experience made visible—what she calls “watching with your heart and listening with your eyes.”
